Tim Sweeney Called Valve 'Assholes' in Email to Gabe Newell, Valve COO Says 'You Mad Bro?'

Tim Sweeney is always mad.

The antitrust lawsuit against Valve from Wolfire Games got a little spicy this week. To quickly get you up to speed: Wolfire claims that Valve uses its position with Steam to control game prices and muscle out competition.

    Mirror's Edge Catalyst Closed Beta Begins April 22

    Those lucky enough to get an invite will get to experience a portion of Mirror's Edge Catalyst on April 22 when the closed beta launches.

    Those who aren't quite as lucky will have to wait until April 23. The beta runs until April 26. If you aren't invited, don't worry too much, it just means you aren't as special as everyone else that was invited. I'm obviously just joking (partially).
